The Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021 release) is a significant upgrade in the smart display category, blending the convenience of Alexa with enhanced multimedia capabilities. Here's a succinct review of its key features and performance:

Design and Display: The Echo Show 8 maintains its compact, user-friendly design, making it a perfect fit for any room. The 8-inch HD screen offers crisp, vibrant visuals, making it ideal for video calls, streaming content, and browsing photos.

Camera Upgrade: One of the standout upgrades is the 13 MP camera, which significantly improves video call quality. With auto-framing, the camera keeps you centered during calls, enhancing the overall experience when connecting with friends and family.

Alexa Integration: Alexa's integration remains top-notch, allowing users to control smart home devices, ask for news updates, set reminders, and much more, all through voice commands. The responsiveness and accuracy of voice recognition have seen noticeable improvements.

Sound Quality: The audio performance of the Echo Show 8 is impressive for its size, delivering clear, robust sound. Whether listening to music, podcasts, or during calls, the sound quality enriches the user experience.

Privacy Features: Amazon has paid attention to privacy concerns, equipping the Echo Show 8 with physical shutters for the camera and a microphone mute button. These features provide peace of mind for users cautious about their privacy.

Overall Experience: The Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) is a well-rounded smart display that excels in connectivity, entertainment, and smart home management. Its upgraded camera, combined with the reliable performance of Alexa, makes it a compelling choice for anyone looking to enhance their smart home ecosystem.

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars. The Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen) misses a perfect score narrowly due to its relatively unchanged design and the ever-present competition for more integrations. However, for those invested in the Alexa ecosystem, it's an excellent addition, offering a blend of practicality, entertainment, and smart home functionality.

I purchased this along with an Echo Show 5 and between the two, this is my preferred device. We use this device in the kitchen as it is the hub of the house. It is linked to our Blink doorbell and camera system, as well as my Apple Music account and there are things I like, and things I don't. The sound quality is very good, a bit on the low end, heavy side - but there are sliders for Treble, Midrange and Bass to adjust. It packs a punch for the size. Both Apple Music and Amazon Music apps have a setting to turn on Sound Check, the feature that equalizes the volume for songs so there are no loud or quiet songs in the mix, however this setting does not translate to when you ask Alexa to play music. You get loud and quiet songs, which is annoying. Using it as a Bluetooth speaker resolves this, but then defeats the purpose of the device. Voice recognition is good as is the screen quality. Setup was a bit of a pain, when I purchased it, I selected link to my Amazon account, and it came linked, but it was acting really weird. I did a factory reset and it seemed to behave better. The home screen content that cycles through seems quite static, I am seeing the recommendations for the same Skills, Recently Played music, etc that I did when I first got it and set it up about 3 weeks ago. Would be nice to have the content refresh daily. It integrates well with my Blink camera system and compatible smart devices - it is nice to say turn off / on living room lights and have it happen almost instantly. I think overall I had higher expectations of what to expect, and while not entirely meeting those expectations, I have come to use this pretty much on a daily basis. Would recommend.

I bought this as an addition to my regular echo but did not have a screen on it. I do like a lot of the features. Sometimes I get frustrated because it does not answer some of the questions that I want but I know that's an Alexa thing. Great addition to my home
